Frozen Over

The snow is particularly heavy this winter. At night, it gets so cold that the windows freeze over. This may be weird to say, but sometimes I feel like everything is frozen over. I don’t remember the last time felt warm - or loved. Love was always something I couldn’t master. It fucking sucks. But I keep going anyway. She is somewhere out there.

Alone at a Party

I dressed up for this. Got out of my pajamas. Even put makeup on. Every year, around this time, I get invited to a party. Sometimes there are people whose name I’ve known for years but never really knew. Sometimes there are people who I used to know but are now strangers. Sometimes, I even enjoy myself. But there’s always this moment when I look around at the room, warm and cozy with sparkling lights from the Christmas tree, the faint smell of butter and cream, and I wonder why I am here.
